Collision-Induced Dissociation II: Trajectories and Models

  • Chapter
Atom - Molecule Collision Theory

Abstract

In this chapter we treat collision-induced dissociation (CID) within the framework of classical mechanics. Such an approach is of great practical use not only in the calculation of CID cross sections for their own sake, but also in the fields of hot-atom chemistry, high-energy molecular beam reactions, electron recombination and detachment, and charge transfer, where CID, although not the main process of interest, is present alongside other processes and must be properly taken into account. Indeed, CID cannot be treated independently of other product channels, since dissociation competes with these as soon as the collision energy increases beyond the dissociation threshold. A decent CID calculation must treat this competition adequately.
